Brittany S. Frederick is one of eSports' senior writers, specializing in poker and baseball coverage. She comes to eSports after twice trying out for ESPN's "Dream Job" anchoring competition, participating in the College World Series of Poker, and thinking she wanted to be Jim Harbaugh when she grew up. Born and raised in Southern California, Brittany is a sports junkie who enjoys and has played baseball, football, hockey, poker, bowling, and even competitive dodgeball, where she was a university captain. She has a particular affection for the San Diego Padres and Chargers, the Duke Blue Devils, J.J. Redick, Adam Eaton, and the Texas Western (now UTEP) Miners. But her all-time favorite franchise has to be the NFL Total Access Hollywood League's "Tastes Like Chicken," the fantasy team run by actor Paul Rudd.
